Maxpedition proteus versipack - Maxpedition Proteus Versipack Bag 0402

The Maxpedition Proteus Versipack is incredibly well built. It's waterproof, the carrying handle makes it really easy to either carry or adjust around your waist.

If I had to say there was an issue with it, it would be that the belt tighteners slips too easily. When I grab the pack by the plastic belt buckles so I can clip them around my waist, the weight of the pack pulls the belt tighteners and the belt tightness changes as a result.

An attachment to 'retain' the belt tightness would be helpful in this regard.

In addition, I have difficulty finding out which attachment tietacs or accessories I should be getting for the pack. I can see that the 5" tietacs are recommended, but it's not clear it those are to attach the Versipack to a backpack, or to attach accessories to the Versipack. Because I do not have a local distributor it's difficult to find out myself at a shop and I don't want to order an item online, have it delivered and find out it isn't what I need.
Pros: Lots of room, durable, hard wearing, carrying handle
Cons: belt adjustment slips, not easy to see what compatible attachment accessories are
